Welcome to this action packed episode of the CISO MindMap Podcast. The lads are biting off a big chunk of the 2025 recommendations by handling numbers 4, 5 and 6.

Recommendation number 4 is Cyber Resilience and Ransomware. The gents discuss industry impacts and the role of AI when it comes to how attackers come at their targets. It’s notable to focus on an organization's ability to respond to an event because minimizing impacts to business operations is critical. Also discussed is the importance of planning, particularly the Business Impact Analysis and the importance of testing.

Recommendation number 5 is about metrics. The recent trend towards more business focused metrics continues and ensuring your metrics are showing improvements over time. In addition to trends, comparing your metrics to industry standards or benchmarks is also a good strategy.

Recommendation number 6 is a more general recommendation to improve your cyber hygiene. Cyber professionals can’t simply jump to new priorities and take on new initiatives without losing site of the basics. Whether it is basic visibility or management of company assets, focusing on cyber hygiene will also be critical.
